Up and On

歌詞

Did you ever see wild oats sown? Blow tangled and get overgrown Leave the whispering seed so far behind Child he knew the clouds piled high Those heartache castles in the sky And through his eyes he left his lonely mind We've been all so down that we Watched ourselves turned around and walk away With all the shame that dragged like lead Never turning back my mind goes Looking for the stony sign The winding way that seeks the love I dread Did you see the old men coughing In their soup the tired stoop The wait for death and such a long time dying The ones of stone who walk on bone Who know no poem except relief That keeps them down from always lying Well you know the time you're so confused Down in your mind you're not trying If you hear a sound that shakes the ground It's only your soul sighing Princes try and hold a throne But they can never meet the loan Even when they hold the stone of reason Tribes they wander lost and die Above the sea below the sky If there's no king in man no need for treason Well you know the time you're so confused Down in your mind you're not trying If you hear a sound that shakes the ground It's only your soul sighing Well you know the time you're so confused Down in your mind you're not trying If you hear a sound that shakes the ground It's only your soul sighing
